Hi all. Just saying hello and brief history of my riding.
Started riding when I was 8yrs old on an old Yamaha enduro bike. Moved up to an old MX 125 after that and then on to a YZ125. From that I got my first road bike at 18yrs old, and old '81 Yam Virago 750. After quite a few years without a bike I picked up a highly modded Yam FJ1100, got married and kissed that goodbye. Then a Yam 1600 Roadstar into a Yam FZ1 and finally what I currently ride, a '12 Yam FJR.
As you can see I've ridden all Yamaha as my personal bikes, but have ridden just about every type out there including Honda, Suz, Kaw, Harley, Indian, KTM and Husqvarna.
My current situation is that I hardly ride my FJR much anymore as NW Ohio is so boring to ride in and I want to get back to my roots of dirt bikes and trail riding. This has led me to considering trading/selling the FJR and picking up the 690R Enduro.
I went and sat on one yesterday and man that thing is tall. I'm only 5'10 w/ a 32" inseam and I tip toe it. Already found the Koubalink and will make the final decision in the next couple weeks.
Plan on reading a lot here and trying to decide if it's the right move for me.
